Checking the status

The values indicate the pulse ratio of the oil level signal, the oil temperature signal and the oil quality signal based on the combined pulse width modulated signal from the oil level sensor. All these signals are used by the engine control module (ECM) to calculate the oil level.

Check that all three values for oil level, oil temperature and oil grade are between 17-83%. The fault is intermittent at the moment if all the values are OK.
